Tier 4

[november90]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

The whole of the Midlands is not in Tier 4! The Tier 2 counties have now been moved up to Tier 3.

I'm on the Isle if Wight. In one week we've gone from Tier 1 to Tier 4. Fuck my life.

Tier 2 going into 2 here, it is very busy here all around seems to be visiting, queues for cafes and pubs etc. Not sure it will make much difference though.

into 3 I mean

Agreed Nana. Cowes is pretty much the only parish above national average. I only know one person whose had it 🤷

@girlcrushonvillanelle

They really need to put us in full lockdown.

I am in Cornwall which is currently in Tier 2, but the rates are going up and up! All this does is allows our numbers to continue to rocket, and then when people have died then they might actually do something!

I'm fuming!!

Actually you're going into Tier 3 tomorrow.

Oh great 12% left in 3, will still be pretty busy then. At least we have sales on I guess

@ladypenelope68 I thought the same but I saw a post on mumsnet yesterday saying Yorkshire hospitals have capacity and are treating patients from elsewhere so I guess that's why we're still T3. That said I don't think it's sustainable and I assumed we would be T4 too! No doubt it is coming, it won't make any difference to me tbh as I don't go out much and it won't delay our return to the office come January.

I can only assume our new cases have increased over 300% in a week and a third of ALL cases were recorded this month. We have an older population and one small hospital.

Sensitive hopefully people will take more notice of Tier 4 than Tier 3. Not convinced though.

Tier 3 practically surrounded by Tier 4 here.

crossstitchingnana, Isle of Wight was in Tier 3 from 26th Dec.

So was a jump from Tier 1 to 3 on 26th, now to Tier 4 on 31st. Rapid jump in Tier's none the less. Has travel between the island and main land increased perhaps?

Yeah, but in one week we've gone from 1-4

York got their numbers right down and came out in Tier 2 after the last lockdown. Huge numbers of tier tourists and the rates have doubled in a week. Going to Tier 3 tonight.

I did think that, surprised you’ve moved up so dramatically

Do gyms close in tier 4?

@LadyPenelope68

I’m in Yorkshire which is Tier 3, our rates have been rising dramatically, yet, on checking the Government website just now, we are the only area that is currently in Tier 3 that hasn’t been moved to Tier 4! Makes no sense whatever.

Which part of Yorkshire are you though? I'm in West and our numbers have dropped loads, and I'm only seeing decreases.

I've never been so happy to be in tier 3, with items in repair in shops and my DP has been trying to take a driving test for 9 months.

gyms & pools are closed in Tier 4.

I'm not surprised at all, I'm on a tier 3 area at the border of York and have seen loads of friends going for a pint. Very frustrating for York.

@OhNoItsADalek in tier 4 everything is shut except essential shops

We’ve been in tier 4 for weeks. Not much different to tier 3 or lockdown

You can’t argue with it, people have been crossing tiers so they can go shopping or the pub, Christmas travel, it was inevitable
You only have to read the posts on here to see the volume of people admitting they won’t be following rules but “I’m very careful”
Maybe now they will follow the rules but I doubt it. We should have curfews like other countries

Oh dear. Better get used to jogging in the cold.

You know tier 4 has only existed for a week and a half right? It must be pretty terrible if that feels like ‘weeks’...

[quote Lifeispassingby]@SueEllenMishke what area are you in? Are you looking at your local area or your county as a whole?[/quote]
Both.
My local area has had very low cases throughout but we were dragged into additional restrictions in July because the wider area had high cases and we've never left.

Cases in our wider area have decreased dramatically to the extent we should have been moved to tier 2 a couple of weeks ago.
Looking at our numbers I just can't fathom that we're now in tier 4.

Essentially we've had 2 weeks out of lockdown all year.
